Handmade Book: Goo

I’ve recently started to make “one of one” handmade books. I buy old children’s books from the thrift store, and paint over the pages. From there I collage and paint, using mostly my own photos as source material. The result is one final book: not for sale, just for me. This book is my homage to Sonic Youth. I listened to their album “Goo” on repeat during the entire collage process. The photos were screen captures from a public domain “strip tease” movie, courtesy of the Prelinger Archive.
